Day 34 - Shaping the saddle and the nut, putting on the strings and attaching the arm rest

I marked the machine head drill holes with a brad point, drilled the holes for the screws, and fitted the machine heads to the headstock.

I sanded the nut just thin enough to fit into place.

I sanded a 20 inch radius into the nut and shaped it to the correct height.

I shaped the saddle to fit the bridge and sanded a 20 inch radius into it.

I filed the grooves for the strings and put the strings on.

I scored the lacquer with a scalpel and glued the arm rest into place with epoxy.

I played the guitar.

Super stoked!
